Corfe Castle: a timeless scene framed in a diamond
Corfe Castle: a timeless scene framed in a diamond
Looking through the railings of the footbridge at Corfe Castle station on a very sunny Mother's Day. The Swanage Railway is a well-known heritage railway and it runs steam trains on some weekends, such as this one. The steam engine, the old-fashioned (if replica) station buildings with the castle as backdrop make for a scene which could date from almost any era.
